Ingredients
For the Doughnuts:
- 3½ – 4 cups white bread flour
- 1 packet instant yeast (11g)
- 1 tsp salt
- 1½ cups dairy-free milk (Like Lifetsyle Food Oat Milk)
- ¼ cup Lifestyle Food Honey or golden syrup
For the Caramel:
- 1 can Lifestyle Food Sweetened Coconut Milk (or regular condensed milk)
- 1-2 tsp Lifestyle Food Ground Cinnamon and granulated sugar (for sprinkling)
- ½ cup granulated sugar
Method:
- In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, yeast, and salt. Add the dairy-free milk and Lifestyle Food Honey, mixing until smooth. Add more flour if the dough is sticky.
- Grease the bowl and place the dough back in. Cover and let it rise until doubled in size.
- Roll the dough to 2-3 cm thickness. Use a gingerbread man cookie cutter to cut out the doughnuts. Let them rise for 30 minutes.
- Heat oil in a pan. Fry the doughnuts for 30-45 seconds on each side, or until golden brown.
- Place the fried doughnuts on paper towels to drain excess oil.
- In a saucepan, simmer the Lifestyle Food Sweetened Coconut Milk until golden brown.
- In a bowl, combine the granulated sugar and Lifestyle Food Ground Cinnamon. Dip each doughnut into the caramel and sprinkle with cinnamon sugar.
- Serve and enjoy these festive, sweet doughnuts!
